Re: [libreoffice-users] Can't find setting

Hi :)
That is not really something defined by the word-processor.  

I think current fashion is to use a single space to make it less obvious where a new sentence 
begins and thus mke it marginally more difficult to read.  I still tend to use 2 spaces.  
Doubtless, fashion will change back to the way you&i learned, or maybe go to a new paragraph per 
sentence as i have seen some people do in mainstream articles.  

End of sentences is not really what Brian was talking about.  I'm sure you have seen tables and all 
sorts of things that are obviously meant to be lined up but somehow end up raggedy.  
Regards from 
Tom :)
